摘要
Significantly increased activity of Cr(CO)//6 was achieved for the stereoselective homogeneous hydrogenation of methyl sorbate and trans,trans-conjugated fatty esters at ambient temperature and pressure by exposing the catalyst to UV irradiation (3500 A) in a solvent mixture of cyclohexane-acetonitrile (20:1). In this solvent mixture, methyl sorbate was converted quantitatively at ambient conditions into methyl cis-3-hexenoate, and methyl trans-9,trans-11-octadecadienoate into methyl cis-10-octadecenoate (99. 9%). These products are expected by 1,4-addition of hydrogen. A hydrogenation mechanism is proposed for Cr(CO)//6 that involves CH//3CN- and H//2-Cr(CO)//3 complexes as intermediates for the stereoselective 1,4-addition of hydrogen to trans,trans-conjugated dienes.
